A very enjoyable book that keeps you hooked to the end. Thank you to NetGalley, HQ and the author for the chance to review.

I enjoyed reading this book. It kept me guessing and was a solid read. Good pace, and good story. I would read more by this author.

I loved absolutely everything about this. I've never read anything by the author before but the blurb sounded right up my alley and I'm so glad I chose to read it.

I adore a locked room mystery and this was a fantastic example. The cast of characters were well fleshed out and felt like real people and the location was so atmospheric. I really enjoyed the writing style - I appreciated the level of detail in the descriptions which in my opinion really elevated this from a good book into a great one. I loved how as the reader you felt Bella's confusion and later, terror, and how you couldn't trust anyone. The ending was satisfying.

I would 100% recommend this book, easily one of the best I've read recently.
